Have you ever gotten a job using a job board

Putting your resume on [job boards like CareerBuilder or Simply Hired] is the same as placing it in the trash can. The odds of someone offering you a job are close to none!

Re: Have you ever gotten a job using a job board
I have had more interviews in the past month or so than I have had all during my 4 years of unemployment. I get at least 2 phone calls a day. What is hurting me is the gap in employment, but I am still encouraged because my resumes are being viewed and I am finally getting through. After one of these interviews, somethings got to give and I'll get the job!

.....and I live in RI, second highest unemployment rate in the country at 10.2%, and not getting any better. The only way to find a job here is keeping your resumes current on the job boards.

You go, Desp! I've been keeping mine updated on CareerBuilder and Monster. Lack week got slammed with calls from recruiters for Intel jobs, which lead to an Interview for one of them on Tuesday.
